Qiao Yimo's eyes lit up when she heard this. She turned her head and saw Mr. Xu, but she didn't want Old Madam Gu to say it out loud.
The old lady still had to say that this suggestion was also made by Qiao Yimo.
“Adopt a child from another member of the Gu family.”
Having said that, Su Ning fully understood Qiao Yimo's purpose in coming.
She probably knew that Gu Jingchen was unlikely to look for him again, so she resorted to second best, bringing the old lady along, hoping that Gu Jingchen would agree to transfer the Gu family business to Lu Shaohan.
As expected, Grandma Gu had a problem with Qiao Yimo, but she still really liked her grandson Lu Shaohan.
"Shaohan is much more sensible than before; he can help you."
"Jingchen, let Shaohan start working at Gu's first."
Grandma Gu continued.
Qiao Yimo will soon have Shao Han's child, and the child will take the surname Gu, so the Gu family line will not be cut off.
"Su Ning, you have to agree to this."
"That's what Grandma Gu said in a serious voice."
If Su Ning doesn't choose the first option, then she must choose the second option.
"hehe!"
Xu Sheng laughed first, "Jing Chen, you're dissatisfied with Ning Ning."
"In that case, I'll take him back to the capital."
Xu Sheng was reluctant to let his daughter get married too early, but seeing how much Su Ning had suffered for Gu Jingchen, and how good Gu Jingchen had been to her, he reluctantly accepted the marriage.
Gu Jingchen calmly replied, "I haven't thought about finding a surrogate again."
“I accept that Ningning can’t have children.”
He invited Old Madam Gu and Qiao Yimo in to explain things in front of Su Ning and Xu Sheng, so that Old Madam Gu wouldn't be used and come looking for trouble again.
"As for letting Lu Shaohan join the Gu family."
"The Lu family has already kicked him out, do you think our Gu family still wants him?"
Gu Jingchen looked at Grandma Gu and said, "Grandma, don't worry too much about Ningning and me. It won't do you any good to cause any more trouble."
Grandma Gu could hear the threat in Gu Jingchen's words.
"I'm doing this all for the good of my family."
“If it’s for the good of the Gu family, you shouldn’t have bothered Ningning with this kind of thing.”
"If we really don't have any children in the future, we'll choose from the collateral branches."
"But, Grandma, the Gu family is currently negotiating a very important cooperation with the Xu family. If Ningning and I fall out over the child, the Gu family will have no future."
The Xu family!
The old lady paused for a moment, remembering Su Ning's current identity.
Qiao Yimo also realized what was happening.
Yes, Su Ning is the eldest daughter of the Xu family.
"Yes, my sister is now Miss Xu, but why haven't we seen anyone from the Xu family?"
"Is he just a figurehead?"
Qiao Yimo meant that Su Ning was not favored.
"Jing Chen!"
Xu Sheng, who didn't like hearing these things, called out in a calm voice. He looked at Qiao Yimo, whose heart raced under his deep gaze, and she lowered her head shyly.
It must be because she's so beautiful that Mr. Xu kept looking at her.
Mr. Xu? Qiao Yimo thought of this and suddenly felt something was not right.
"I've come here to talk to you about Ningning's marriage!"
"However, given the attitude of your Gu family, this marriage should be called off."
As soon as Xu Sheng finished speaking, Gu Jingchen called out anxiously, "Dad!"
dad!
These two words pierced Qiao Yimo's ears. Qiao Yimo looked up at Xu Sheng, who was smiling sarcastically, and then looked at Xu Sheng and Su Ning. The two faces looked so alike!
Could this man be Su Ning's biological father?
Qiao Yimo was stunned, standing there speechless, only feeling a burning pain on her cheeks.
